Yet another wallpaper with a totally inappropriate literary allusion in the title! This time it's Yuko of xxxHolic.
Because black and white is sexy. Or at least near-flat monochromatic color usage. A quick trace of the scan, and another trace of some stained-glass style butterflies
I found with a Google Image search, and you have this wallpaper. I wanted Yuko to kind of blend in with the background,
adding some background butterflies just enough to separate her, but not fully. At first I was thinking of using a
butterfly pattern over Yuko too, but it got too busy and distracted from the whole 'black and white is sexy' idea.

Another flawless vector wall with all the right ingredients. ;)
@_@ And those butterflies are insane.. I would take days and days to do those.
This is so sexy and cool. <3
The dark black/blue and white go really well. It makes it look even sexier.
I can only say that you are amazing tama! *fav fav fav*

I'll start off by saying that I love your work and I completely agree, black and white is sexy. This is such a large
improvement over the original scan, but the only complaint I have to say is that you can't really see her beautiful
dress, but it doesn't matter that much =).

The scan is a HUGE improvement over what it originally was, considering the quality and everything else, you did a
fantastic job fixing up this scan and it looks just simply gorgeous *_______*. Bits and pieces of her dress can be made
out, but nothing greatly solid, which is too bad cause I think the dress she has on is just beautiful, but you can make
out enough of it, looking at the original scan.

The background is what really captured my eye, beautiful butterflies in the bg, so very nicely done and the style to it
as well is just supurb. I'm not too sure if it's just myself, but I get a butterfly-ish style design out of the
background and I just love that *_____* Tama, you really are something else with your unique style. Fantastic work
there, simple yet beautfiul.

Overall, I really love this background, probably my favorite xxxholic bg. It's also a favorite for me. Great work, Tama
and I look very foward to your next submission.

I saw the thumbnail & was intrigued to see the vectoring, but didn't think much of the black & white... bloody
hell, I was surprised to see all that beautiful detail and that's before I even saw the luschious background! Fantastic
work! Amazing details, and just absolutely stunning work in just three colours!

Excellent vectoring and details. I love the butterflies on her and the butterfly B. Also love the chocie of colour you
decoded to use, it makes Yuko seem more mysterious and sexy. This is a stunning wallpaper. Great job!

That is probably the best xxxHolic wallpapers I've seen here. The backround is amazing, dark and detailed - sort of has
the monochromatic-stained-glass-window effect. The sexy slit in Yuko's dress makes the wallpaper pretty damn hot, but
the butterflies simply rock...

Beautiful OoO You really make me surprised with this one, sweetie ^_^ I love it of course so sure you got my fav ;)
But why not change the style? You just keep on this vectoring but i really wish to see your cool scene skill ^_^

totally agree that black n white is sexy ^^
and I think u did a gr8 job on this wall, whether it is the improving of the quality of the scan or the overall
composition in the end :) nice, crisp and clean, and the fact that it is black/white & widescreen is all the more a
supporting factor for me to fave this
